Item 8.01

Other events.

 

Twinlab Consolidated Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) previously planned to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Annual Report”) by March 30, 2020, however, the Company will be delaying the filing of its Annual Report due to circumstances related to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19. The Company is relying on the order (the “Order”) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2020 in Release No. 34-88465 relating to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to support the delay in the filing of its Annual Report. The Company expects to file its Annual Report before April 30, 2020.

 

The Company is unable to timely file its Annual Report due to COVID-19 related office closures impeding its employees’ ability to respond to data requests from its auditors and to complete its financial statements. In order to minimize the COVID-19 exposure risk to it employees, the Company has followed the guidelines of local health authorities in Florida and New York, where its offices and operations are located, and has provided its office employees the resources to work remotely from their homes. The change to a remote work environment has led to disruptions and delays in the coordination of information required for preparing the Annual Report. The Company is relying on the Order to afford its employees the additional time, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, to provide accurate and fully reviewed information for the Annual Report.

 

The Company is supplementing the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and its subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q with the following risk factor:

 

Potential business impacts related to COVID-19 pandemic

 

Our business continuity and supply chain operations may be affected by the recent COVID-19 Pandemic

 

The Company has taken proactive measures to secure enough inventory to meet forecasted demand and mitigate any potential disruption to the business from COVID-19. While the Company believes that effective steps have been taken, business disruptions may be imminent should the Company realize unforeseen shifts in retail and direct customer behavior.

 

Potential impacts to the Company from COVID-19 may include changes in consumer demand, the impacts on retail customers and the availability of materials from suppliers, to name a few. The extent to which COVID-19 may impact the Company’s results will depend on future developments, which continue to emerge and cannot be predicted. These developments are highly uncertain and the actions to contain and treat COVID-19 remain fluid. The Company will continue to do everything possible to maximize operational capabilities while ensuring the safety and health of employees and customers remain top priority.
